Due to production and staging issues at the smaller venues initially scheduled for her upcoming Chicago and Detroit shows, Lady GaGahas moved the shows into larger arenas but is making fans re-buy tickets instead of honoring the originals. (FROM TICKETNEWS.COM)

KIND OF SHADY I MUST SAY. I HAVE A LOT OF FRIENDS WHO GO ABSOLUTELY MENTAL WHEN BUYING TICKET. THEY BECOME QUITE STRATEGIC ABOUT IT, SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD RUIN EVERYTHING.

NOT COOL.

THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PICTURE THAT MAKES ME FEEL JUST A LITTLE BIT AWKWARD. IT REMINDS ME OF KING KONG. I FIND IT RACIST. IN THE MOVIE INGLORIOUS BASTARDS THEY PLAY THE "GUESS WHO I AM GAME."

AN OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR MJ'S SONG "THIS IS IT." I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY THIS SONG HAS GARNERED SO MUCH ATTENTION FROM THE MJ CAMP. WHY WAS IT CHOSEN TO BE RELEASED? IS IT MERELY BECAUSE OF THE COINCIDENCES OF THE NAME OF THE TOUR, THE SONG, AND THAT MJ HAS NOW PASSED. THE SONG ITSELF ISN'T THAT GREAT. HOWEVER, →

The internet chapter of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, a secret copyright treaty whose text Obama's administration refused to disclose due to "national security" concerns, has leaked. It's bad. It says: * That ISPs have to proactively police copyright on user-contributed material.

MAINE REJECTED GAY MARRIAGE. IT IS UNNERVING TO THINK THAT A STATE, SO EMBEDDED, IN THE NORTHEAST, SUCH A PRO-GAY PART OF OUR COUNTRY, WOULD BE SO INCREDIBLY CLOSE-MINDED AND EVIL. HATRED WON TODAY.

A JAPANESE WOMAN AND AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN GOT INTO A FIGHT ON A BUS IN SAN FRANCISCO. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY, IT'S HARD TO TELL FROM THE VIDEO, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE AA WOMAN STARTED THE FIGHT, PROBABLY AS A RESULT OF A MISUNDERSTANDING, THEN SHE THREW A PUNCH AND THE ASIAN WOMAN WENT APE SHIT ON HER AZZ, →
